CHICAGO, Dec. 9.-The first act of dis
cipline directed against the rebellious
Knights of Labor by Mr.. Powderly became
known yesterday. 1t was the suspension of
local assemblies Nos. 1907 and 1909. No.
1907 was tine first to secede and throw its in
fuence in favor OF the rebels. 1t is the most
pended for insubordination. No. 2,soe is the
assembly that George Schilling belongs to.

Rumor of Opposition to Mr.. vIias's

Some of the ChaIrmen Of the
House Committees.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 0.-The report tele-
graphed from Washington that the members
Of the Senate Committee on Elections had
unanimously agreed to the prompt admission
of Mr.. Faulkner as Senator from West vir-
ginia, Mr. Lucas having "failed to make out
a case," is premature, to say the least.
There is no Committee on Elections yet un-
der the rules of the Senate to pass upon the
case 1t is true that all those who composed
that committee in the last Congress are now
Senators, and 1t is presumed that they will
constitute the new committee, but the MEM
bers of the old committee have not passed
upon thescase. They have no more author
ity to do so than any other Senator OIL tne
same number. There seems to be no doubt
anywhere Of the early admission OIL Mr.
Faulkner. Republicans and Democrats
generally agree that, as the choice Oh @ she
State Legislature, he is the Senator. But
the Senate cannot dispense with any OF the
legal observances and formalitics OF settling
the case.
Villas andl Lamar.
There is a report that Mr.. Villas may not
be confirmed as Secretary Of the Interior
without considerable opposition. One of
the grounds of opposition is said to be that a
brother of Mr.. Villas is interested in GER
tain land matter in California which was
held up by Commissioner Sparks because OF
Irregularities. 1t is reported also that Mr.
Villas has been and Is interested In certain
lumber operations on Indian reservations in
Wisconsin. II is said to have come to the
knowledge Of several Senators that the pine
timber is being stripped from several reser-
vations in violation of the law and of the
regulations of the Indian Bureau, and that
